VI. Public Hearing on application for Solar Energy Facility Exemption Certificate for Pivot Energy. Attorney Seth Koches explains this matter. If the Board approves this application, there will be a loss of tax revenue for the Township. The approval would mean that the Township would receive a consistent amount of tax revenue each year of the agreement instead of an inconsistent amount that needs to be calculated each year. The board would like to take time to think this matter over. A motion was made by Scott, 2nd by Rusty to continue this public hearing on June 16, 2026, at 10:00am. Roll call vote, all in favor the motion passed.

VIII. Close Public Hearing. Public hearing closed at 10:55 am.
IX. Resolution 2026-16 Approve Local Road Agreement with Calhoun County Road Department. There are a couple of roads that need to be added to the list included in the agreement. Attorney Koches suggests that the approval of the resolution be contingent on the approval of a bond agreement with the County. A motion was made by Rusty, 2nd by Scott to approve Resolution 2026-16 contingent on the approval of a bond agreement between the Township and the County. Roll call vote, all in favor the motion passed. Attorney Koches will contact the County attorney to find out more information about the bond.
VII. Adjourn: A motion was made by Hayley, 2nd by Stephanie to adjourn at 11:10. All in favor, the motion passed.
